    Lois Ogier in "Long and Leedys" states that "he came to Ohio in 1813 after his brother-in-law John Leedy had settled in what came to be known as Ankneytown. John Long's Aunt Catherine had married Abraham Leedy in Hagarstown, MD. John completed the relationship by marrying his first cousin, Susannah Leedy, the daughter of Abraham and Catherine Long Leedy. Susannah was reported...to have been a very large woman, capable of physical labor that would stagger most modern men.
    John and Susannah were the parents of 21 children, 18 of whom grew to adulthood and married. They are buried in a little private cemetery north of Ankneytown in the corner of what was the original John Long farm. This is known as Mutzbaugh of Teeter Cemetery.
